THERE  's  a  land  that  is  fairer  than  day, 

And  by  faith  we  can  see  it  afar, 
For  the  Father  waits  over  the  way. 

To  prepare  us  a  dwelling-place  there. 

CHORUS. 
In  the  sweet  by  and  by 

We  shall  meet  on  that  beautiful  shore. 
In  the  sweet  by  and  by 

We  shall  meet  on  that  beautiful  shore. 


We  shall  sing  on  that  beautiful  shore 
The  melodious  songs  of  the  blest, 

And  our  spirits  shall  sorrow  no  more  — 
Not  a  sigh  for  the  blessing  of  rest. 

To  our  bountiful   Father  above 

We  will  offer  the  tribute  of  praise, 

For  the  glorious  gift  of  his  love, 

And  the  blessings  that  hallow  our  day 


There  's  a  land  that  is  fairer  than  day"
